Kenmore water inlet valve that's no longer available - other options?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Kenmore Refrigerator
Model Number - 10659212990
water inlet valve - 2206123 is one of several part numbers I've found
water not flowing into ice maker :

I have an old Kenmore from around 2000…The plastic chute that delivers the water to the ice maker keeps freezing over without ice being made. Water in door doesn’t work either (but I ONLY care about the ice part if that matters).
I want to replace the water inlet valve but because its so old, there’s only one or two on the internet for ridiculous prices. It’s a triple solenoid type originally made by WP I think - I bought a similar triple solenoid model on amazon thinking I could make it work. I think it might have, but at the end one solenoid had wider metal connector tabs than the connector coming from the fridge so I couldn’t connect it. There must be an alternative solution besides buying bags of ice!  Any help is greatly appreciated

I'm attaching a pic showing the original on the left, and the new triple solenoid I bought that doesn't fit - in case anyone wants to see...
